The Wind Rush Years
Notes:
Brought up to respect everything about Britain and never speak against it.
When the war broke out the west indies join in and did their part for their country.
Half a million of west indies came over to britain.
Basically the whites in britain weren't happy with the idea there were protests and riots.
The were seen as the black population then after the years to now seen as the british population after so many years.
New ways of life where brought over such as food and clothing for example.
Black's weren't accepted in churches as the whites felt it discriminated their white culture and society.
When Martin Luther king become popular it effected the way the blacks lived among Britian.
Black homes were targeted for 6 weeks in notting hill
No laws existed in Britain for black people until eventually a year and a half a race law was invented.
*This isn't finished but I have other notes that I need to redo because they don't make sense even to me*
